Furnishing Compressed Air.

A company i'll Birmingham, England, are
completing a large central plant for furnish
ing compressed air through mains to the
owners Of small engines. Trials already made
are said to have shown that the cost to con-
struct will be considerably less than the cost
of steam made on the premises. Besides doing
away with the dirt and dust from the coal,
and the saving of room, the Use of compressed
air is said to furnish excellent means OF ven-
~tilation. All excellent feature of the charter
Of this company is a clause compelling them
to divide al profits over 10 per cent. with the
consumers.-Public Opinion.

English and American News Gatherers.

English and American News GathererS.
The average English reporter trusts far too
much to shorthand. When he gets on a large
daily, he is apt to become n mere note taking
machine, and he is treated and esteemed as
such Tho result is that when there comes
among reporters a man who can write "out
OF his own head" no use is made of his capac-
ity. The chief reporter simply uses him as a
machine, and the man, if he be Of any STAN
ina, retaliates by getting himself removed
from the reporting staff to some other depart
ment. Then when the occasion comes that q
reporter is wanted to wrios original copy he
is either not there or he lacks the facility that
comes from practice.
The American reporter is different. In
many cases he would be unfit to take his
turn in the gallery" or at a large public
meeting where the paper sends n corps for O
I'VE column verbatim report. His shorthand

4. Much More Graceful Way.

To lombard a stage favorite with huge
bouquets, hurled by the muscular arms of
gallants from the galleries, rs used to be the
fashion i'll bygone days, or to hide her behind
q pyramid of baskets, pillows, harps, stars
and other emblems suggestive of a political
funeral, as is done now, is alike inartistic and
unseemly. How much more graceful it
would be for members of the audience to toss
from their places each n single rose. or spray
of buds, which would carpet the stage and
make a bed Of flowers for the actress to tread
upon, as blossoms are strewn in the path of q
bride. Surely this custom would be more
beautiful than that which is now in vogue,
md there would be u sentimental phase to it
which is lacking now-namely, the fact that
the humblest as we'll as the grandest admirer
could afford to take part in the demonstra.
tion.-Washington Star.

TALES or GEN. FORREST.
The Rough and Tumble Manner of the
Confederate Cavalry Loader.

h Rough and Tumble Manners OF the
Confederate Cavalry Loader.
The following interesting incidents i'll the
army life Of Gen. Bedford Forrest were wit
messed by nil eye witness, and now for the
first time published:
In December, 1862, Gen. n. B. Forrest
crossed the Tennessee river and made n raid
through west Tennessee, which portion Of the
state was fortified in many places, all of
which were strongly garrisoncd. While
making Il feint against jackson Ito enable
the larger part of his brigade to %u,,inter-
~rnptedly capture the small stockades on the
r~ailroal) "a staff officer galloped up to the
general and exclaimed, excitedly:
"General. general, the Yankees are coming
up in your rcur!'
Without n moments hesitation, in the
most indifferent manner imaginable, Forrest
replied:
IL don't kere d.. Iii about face
an Ill be i'll thar rar."
While crossing the Tennessee river return-
ing from thi, same raid his rear was strongly
pressed by the Fcdera's. Tho fcrrybouts had
to he pulled back and forth by hand. Tho
weather was terribly cold and rs the men
hauled upon the wet ropes their hands would
literally freeze to them. Forrest thought
those on the east side We're working too
slowly and crossing over he Immediately put
every one to work-oniccrs rs we'll us plivates.
The colonel who had been left in command
on the west side sent his sergeant major
across the river with an important message
to Forrest. The sergeant found the general
hauling OH a rope, alternately encouraging
and damning every one near him. He ran
up to Forrest, and began:
General, Col. Woo
D-m colonel whoever he is. ketch hold
of this rope and help pull the boat inv
But, general, colonel
Don't talk 10 me. Help pull this boat in,
or I'll throw you in the river" shouted For
rest.
But, general, I'm sent" began tho SER
geant, when Forrest seized him, and with ono
twist of his muscular arm lifted the messen-
ger clear Off his feet, and stood him up in the
water waist deep. The sergeant, to save
himself as lie went over, seized hold OF For
rests coat and pulled tho general in with
him. Forrest retained his hold Of the SER
geant, and exclailning, "Spunky dog, eh!'
he soused him under tho water II held him
there n few seconds; then lifting tho ser
geant's head above the water long enough
for him to catch his breath, he would shove
him upper water again, and again bringing
him up would exclaim:
"Spunky dog, eh!"
After immersing the sergeant several times
Forrest helped him ashore, when the latter,
half stranglcd and coughing, tried to draw
his pistol. Forrest gave him two or three
slaps on the back to help him cxpel the water,
from his lungs, saying at the same time:

The WHITE

All White Animals Held in Reverence
by the Siamesc-A Kings Grief.
Miss Bows at one time attended the cap
ture and reception i'll Bangkok Of q white
elephant. Her people, being devout Bud
lhisis, believe in mctempsychosis. The soul
of each successive Boodha in its geological
migr"tions occupies in turn the forms of
white animals OF n certain class-particularly
albinos and also the constantly white animals,
as the swan, the >torE, the white sparrow,
the dove, the monkey and the elephant, all
peculiar To Siam. In all the obscurity of
their priests about tho subject ono thing is
agreed on-that the forms of these noble and
pure animals are reserved for the souls of tho
good and great, who find in them redemption
from the baser animal life. All white ANIMALS
are held i'll reverence, especially the white
elephant, which is believed to be animated
with tho spirit OF some king or hero. Tho
whito elephant averts calamity and brings
peace and prosperity. Salmon or flesh color
is as near as these albinos get to white, but
still they are white enough to have caused
wars Tor their possession between Siam md
Buimah. Tho national standard is a white
elephant on a deep crimson ground.
Discovered in tho Shan country, or in
Northern Siam, the king is apprised of the
fact; tho slave who finds tho elephant is made
FREQ and rich; the elephant is decoyed by n
female from the Jungle. led into n bamboo
stockads, caught by ropes about his legs, and
soon subdred. The march to the royal stable
begins, and ten or twelve miles n day are
Travelled, which is tho average elephant speed.
He is brought to tho Mcnaln, fed with sweet
meats, put under q royal pavilion, loaded
with golden chains, and enters Bangkok i'll
triumph. 1t is q time for feasting and a
week of holidays.
"A magnificent white elephant was captured
i'll ls63. The nation was wild with Joy. Tho
elephant, whose body might nave contained
Gaudnmas' soul itself, suddenly died, and the
learned king, who knew English well and
could have discussed st. Paul's writings to
the delight and ediiication of Matthew Ar
no!d-the scientific king, who calculated with
accuracy the great total solar eclipse of 1868,
spent Sl0O,0 0 OH the scientific expedition to
observe it, and even lost his life from expos
urc i'll tho noxious Jungle. dying like u Soc
rates, calmly and scntentiously soliloquizing
on death and its inevitability; the king who,
under tho tutoyship OF American missionaries,
made the greatest progress of all oriental
monarchs in his ideas of government, COM
merce and even religion: never hesitating to
express his respect for the fundamental prin-
ciples of Christianity, but cutting short his
reverend teacher when pressing homo to him
what he regarded us the moro pretentious and
apocryphal parts OF tho Bible, with the SELL
tentious statement that II hate the B.ble
m~ostly'-the king and high priest of Siam
wept ut tho death of his new white elephant.
